Hi ladies, a new thread for us to continue the amazing support into the new year.
Praying this thread will hold the key to many positives🩷
I’m currently on CD4 today and looking forward to a fresh cycle. We have now hit the one year mark TTC no. 3 so hoping for a miracle soon xxx

Hey, sorry it’s taken me ages to reply 💜 thank you so much. I’m so sorry about that. Here if you need to chat/vent, we all are. It’s horrible to start having thinking ahead to the following month isn’t it, seems like an eternity. So glad you have a weekend away to look forward to and outfit planning definitely a great idea! I’m wishing you all the best for the tests starting in Feb. Your DH sounds amazing. Sometimes we just need permission to feel. We will get through together I promise 💜

Thank you so much. He is! :)
How are you doing?xx

@HopeB 🥰
I am good… slowly getting used to my situation. Booked in for an early scan on 13 Feb so just a waiting game for that I guess. Trying not to imagine the worst! Xx

Oh wow! That will come round so quickly! Hopefully 🤞🤞
Easier said than done I know, but you’re doing the right thing - trying to stay positive ☺️
You’ll be so reassured after your scan. I know it. So excited for you xx

Hope everyone is doing ok! After not having a clue what was going on due to being ill, AF finally arrived this morning. Typical the one month we haven't dtd she is super late. Anyway - on to cycle 6. All the best to those of you with bfps and see some of you in the Feb boards xx

Hey @lynzmb , good to hear from you again. Glad you finally got AF - so annoying it would have to be super late! - but you must be relieved now? Wishing you all the very best for Feb and sending you all the baby dust in the universe ✨

Yes feels like a fresh start.after a weird month! Hope you're doing ok? x

@lynzmb I really wish you all the best with it 💜

I’m not doing great, if I’m honest. Yesterday I started having brown bleeding/discharge in the morning and I’ve been absolutely spiralling because that’s how my MC started in November. As soon as I saw it I thought it’s happening again. Then the fact I’ve had barely any symptoms - just confirmed for me something is wrong. Usually by this stage I’m sick as a dog.

I’ve been trying to call EPU (rang over 20 times yesterday) but no answer. I’m beside myself. Xx

@dev86 I'm so so sorry you're going through this stress, it's really not fair. I hope you can get through to EPU and find someone to speak to and support you through this. Just go an hour at a time if you can, nothing is definitive and I hope the bleeding settles down. Sending lots of love to you and your little baby.
I have been testing every day I just can't help it, I'm using the premom tests and the lines are just staying the same, and only half as dark as the control line. I'm worried about another chemical but just trying to go day to day too. Sending love.

@Summerrose24 thank you so much for your kind words. I managed to get through to someone before - EPU kind of closed as it’s the weekend (?!) and they said to monitor it and call back in the morning. I feel like I’m living minute to minute

Don’t blame you with the tests at all. What else do we have at this stage? A test was the first thing I reached for yesterday morning. Showed strong but what does that mean, it could be in the wrong place, it could be an ectopic/empty sac… I just end up spinning out.

Trying to distract myself and going for a walk out today. Also cooking/baking my way through it!

Do you have an early scan booked soon?

Sending love to everyone on this thread, hope people are ok - will people still post on it now we’re in Feb though or is it the done thing to go on to another thread? This is my first time posting on here.

xx

Hi @dev86 so glad you got through to epu and got some advice. Do take it easy and try to focus on those words you shared before to just send the little one love. that's good you're getting strong lines but i completely understand theres still so much fear.
I just tried with clear blue and got a much better line. I think I'm going to throw out the box of premom, they were causing me so much stress with really wishy washy lines.
I remember you mentioned progesterone on one of these threads, I do remember my consultant saying there is some evidence it may help with bleeding in early pregnancy so might be worth asking about tomorrow if you see someone. Sending lots of positive thoughts, it's all so hard!

@dev86 ive only just seen this and I am so sorry to hear you’re having a scare with the spotting I can only imagine how you are feeling right now. 🩷🩷💕💕The EPU were very quick at getting back to me when I tried them on a Sunday and they literally rang me first thing on the Monday morning so I’m sure they will see you as a priority and get back to you asap tomorrow. Please let us know how you get on. It sounds as if you’re already doing everything you can. Nothing is definite and it could mean nothing at all I know it’s so easy to say and can only imagine the worry just take it an hour at a time, you’ll feel more re assured I’m sure once someone from the EPU gets back to you. Please let us know how it goes and sending you lots of strength and a big hug x

So sorry you've had a scare @dev86 and hoping everything is ok when you speak to the EPU. Rest up and look after yourself, sending a big hug xx

@dev86 had the bleeding settled?
hopefully it’s just implantation and everything is fine: I know it’s so difficult not to worry and think the worst though, sending you lots of love and positive wishes

Thank you so much guys 🩷 I’ve been up & down, but managed to get an appointment for an early scan tomorrow morning. Will let you know how it goes! Trying to remain optimistic and distract myself as much as possible 🙈

@Summerrose24 thank you so much. Yes - this is the time I need to focus on those words! It’s so much harder to do when it’s ourselves isn’t it. Am so glad you’ve sacked off the dodgy tests. I’m really hoping if tomorrow is good news they will offer me the progesterone straight away x

@LuxyLocket thank you xx that’s good to know they got back to you so fast. You just feel like no one can help don’t you x sending you hugs right back 💜

@lynzmb thank you, same to you xx

@Ncl31 it’s been on & off, when it goes away I feel better but as soon as I see it again my heart just sinks. It’s a rollercoaster for sure! Thank you for that. How are you doing with everything xx

Sending lots of positivity for tomorrow @dev86 , will be thinking of you 🤗

@dev86 how did you scan go today? I hope it was positive news for you

Thank you guys. That means a lot 💜

The scan went really well thank you - I can’t believe it still. There are 2 in there!!!

I am in shock. I went from going in convinced I was having a MC to this. Very happy though of course! But yes, shocked

Oh my goodness @dev86 congratulations! Twinnies! That must have been quite a surprise x

Unbelievable!

Hope everyone is getting on ok xxx

Wow that’s amazing!!! Xx

Ahh @dev86 that's amazing news!! Oh my goodness twins 😍 Congratulations. I was thinking of your today, this is even better news than I hoped for for you! Are they identical? Such lovely news.

Thank you so much xxxx no they are non identical as each in their own sac. Feels so surreal saying it!! I have to go back tomorrow morning and collect the progesterone as I was in such a daze I walked out of there and completely forgot about it 🙈😅

@dev86 oh goodness this is amazing news! Congratulations! I bet you’re thrilled with the news x

Thank you xxxxx
